From Love To Ashes

Synopsis

When I married Bentley Gordon, the Gordon family had just gone bankrupt. For him, I worked tirelessly by day and stayed up all night running a street stall, saving up the seed money for his startup and raising our son, Stephen Gordon. I never once regretted it because I believed that better days were coming. Yesterday, Bentley's company went public. We hugged and cried, thinking our hardships were finally over. But today, I froze in front of my little food cart, staring at my phone as the trending livestream flashed across the screen: Bentley, in a crisp suit, confidently telling reporters how he single-handedly fulfilled the family's wager agreement and was about to take over as CEO of the family conglomerate. And standing beside him was Mollie Roberts, the "junior" Bentley claimed had worked alongside him for years.
